Leading Polish Farmer Says Goob-
er Vines Destroy Nut Grass.
Brenham, Texas, March lo.-
Among the earnest advocates of
peanut culture is a prominent
Polish farmer, residing about
two miles east of Brenham, who
declares that, in addition to the
profits derived from raising pea-
nuts, coco or nut grass may b<
ei ad mated by planting peanuts
Oii the land infested with this
u-de-.irja.ble grass, which is mm e
uiffiuult bo destroy than Jolmson
grass. Last year, this farmer
states that he planted peanuts
on a strip of ground where a
large a arge amount of coco
grass grew, and in addition to
reaping a plentiful harvest of the
nuts the grass was enti-dy d
stt oyed. This is another <>1 the
many advantages of peanut cul-
ture.

On Woman’! Suffrage.
Equal rights de not imply that hot! «tx«« ahould
engage promiscuously in the same pursuits, but rather
that each sex should discharge those duties which are
adapted to its physical constitution and are sanctioned
by the canons of society. To some among the gentler
sex the words “equal rights’* have been, it is feared,
synonymous with “similar rights’*. To debar woman
from certain pursuits, is not to degrade her. To restrict
her field of action to the gentler avocations of life is
not to fetter her aspirations after the higher and the
better. It is, on tho contrary, to secure to her not equa1
rights so-called, but those supereminent rights which
cannot fail to endow her with * eacred influence in her
own proper sphere. ’
The insistence on a right of participation in active political life is un-
doubtedly calculated to rob woman of all that is Amiable and gentle, tender
and attractive; to rob her of her innate grace of character, and give her
nothing in return but masculine boldness and effrontery. Its advocates are
habitually preaching about woman's rights and prerogatives, and have not
a word to say about her duties and responsibilities. They withdraw her from
those obligations which properly belong to her sex and fill her with ambi-
tion to usurp positions for which neither God nor nature ever Intended her
Under the influence of such teachers we find wofnan, especially In higher cir-
cles, neglecting her household duties, never at peace unless she is in perpet.ua'
motion, or unless she is in a state of morbid excitement. She- never feel
at home unless she is abroad. When she is home the home is irksome io
her. Hence arise disputes, quarrels, recriminations, estrangements or tiu
last act of the drania is often divorce.
When I deprecate female suffrage, I am pleading for the dignity of wo
man, I am contending for her honor, I am striving to perpetuate those peer-
less prerogatives inherent in her sex, those charms and graces which exalt
womankind and make her the ornament and the coveted companion of man.
Woman is queen, indeed, but hqr empire is the domestic kingdom. The
greatest political triumphs she would achieve in public life fade into insignifi-
cance compared with the serene glory which radiates from the domestic
shrine, and which she illumines and warms by her conjugal and motherly
virtues. If she is ambitious of the dual empire of public and private life,
then, r.ke the Tabled dog beholding his image in the water, she will lose both,
she will fall from the lofty pedestal where nature ancr Christianity have placed
her. and will fall to grasp the scepter of political authority from the strong
kand of her male competitor.
Though woman Is debarred from voting she brings into the world and
rocks the cradle of the nation’s future citizens She rears and molds the
character of those who are to be the future rulers and statesmen; the heroes
and benefactors of the country. Surely this is glory enoagh for her.

Eat less meat if you feel Backachy or
have Bladder trouble—Salts
fine for Kidneys.
-------<5
Meat forms uric acid which excites
and overworks the kidneys in their efforts
to filter it from the system. Regular eat-
ers of meat must flush, the kidneys occa-
•■ionally. Yoq must relieve them like you
relieve your bowels; removing all the
acids, waste and poison, else you feel a
•lull misery in the kidney region, sharp
pains in the back or sick headache, diz-
ziness, your stomach sours, tongue is
coated and when the weather is bad you
have rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, full of sediment; the channels
■often get irritated, obliging you to get
up two or three times during the night.
To neutralize these irritating acids
and flush off the body’s urinous waste
get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy; take a table-
spoonful in a glass of water before break-
fast for a few days and your kidneys will
then act fine and bladder disorders dis-
appear. This famous salts is made from
the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com-
bined with lithia, and has been used for
generations to clean and stimulate slug-
gish kidneys and stop bladder irritation.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; harmless and
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then, thus avoiding
serious kidney and bladder diseases.
Drug Stores Busy in “Prohi”
Russia.
The Belleville News-Democrat, com-
menting on the recent news dis-
patches from Russia saysd
After more than a year’s trial of the
anti-liquor decree it appears that
some American prohibition history is
being repeated in Russia. A memo-
rial to the City Council of Petrograd
sets forth that the Union Drug Clerks
finds the demand for eau de cologne
and a variety of bitters has been grow-
ing steadily.
It is estimated that the 150 licensed
drug stores in the city have sold the
equivalent of 216,000 gallons of pure
alcohol since the anti-liquor edict took
effect at the beginning of the war.
While some of this is legitimate drug
business, it is asserted that the trade
mainly consists of sales to persons
who use these alcoholic preparations
in beverages.
Further, it is stated, the druggists
have begun the sale of surrogates for
various trade articles, such surrogates
consisting of alcohol that has been
allowed to stand upon aromatic seeds,
roots and leaves, or which has been
more simply doctored up with aniline
ingredients.
The drug store trade, in fact, seems
to be carried on without any false
pretenses as to the purposes for which
these surrogates are offered for sale.
It does not matter whether you cul-
tivate one or a thousand acres it will
pay you to'use Farmogerm. Try it
and see for yourself. Circulars free.

The Dodge Brothers Motor Car
HERE IS A DEPENDABLE CAR, BECAUSE IT IS MADE OF THE
very best of materials, and is equipped with an Eisman High Tension
Magneto, which is one of the most important parts on an automobile,
because if you buy a car without a magneto you will have to depend en-
tirely upon the storage battery, and when this battery dies on you on
the road, there will be no chance of running your car any further.
You will then be compelled to hire the cosily services of an expert
mechanic to adjust the trouble. The DODGE BROTHERS car will
run without the battery because the magneto does the igniting. You
are ALWAYS on the safe side. Read the following extract from a
letter written by Mr. C. A. Rosseter, of Valentine, Nebraska:
“I think the Dodge Brothers car is a wonder, especially in this
country, where .you have to buck sand every trip. My work is al-
ways in the sand hills and I have to cover about one hundred
square miles of the worst sand on earth. I have driven my car
over 6,000 miles without a breakdown, something never done with
any other car over these same roads. In the sand bills I go from
13 to 15 miles per gallon of gasolene. If I wrent north on the hard
roads I wrould average between eighteen and twenty miles.
It will pay you to investigate the merits of the DODGE before decid-
ing on any other make. For further particulars, prices, etc. call on
